Trip to Paris – A little bit of history
” Fluctuat nec mergitur “
On November 24th 1853, Paris’ Motto thanks to Baron Haussmann became a Latin phrase meaning “Tossed but not sunk” and translated as “Elle est agitée par les vagues, et ne sombre pas” in French
The Origin of Paris
“Paris” comes from a Gallic tribe, les “Parisii”. Established by the Seine river around the III century before Christ, they lost battle against the romans in 52 before Christ. The Romans called their new land “civitas Parisiorum”, then “Lutetia civitas Parisiorum”, then Lutetia (Lutèce in French). The Arènes de Lutèce is among the most important ancient Roman remains from the era. The arenas of Lutèce, built in the first century, are a Gallo-Roman amphitheater, for theatrical performances and for gladiator fights and other games with a capacity of 17,000 seats. Paris will become the official name around the IV century. In 508, King Clovis established Paris the capital of his kingdom. Paris nowadays :
- Area 105.4 km2 (40.7 sq mi)

France is the most visited country in the world and Paris is on the top 5 most visited cities in the world. Nowadays, we call Paris, Paname, la Ville Lumière (City of Lights).
